| The Holy Bible: King James Version. 2000. | | The Psalms | | 61 |
Confidence in God's Protection |
| To the chief Musician upon Neg'inah, A Psalm of David. |
|
| 1 |
Hear my cry, O God;
|
| 2 |
From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee,
| | |
when my heart is overwhelmed. |
|
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I; |
|
|
| 3 |
for thou hast been a shelter for me,
| | |
and a strong tower from the enemy. |
|
|
| 4 |
I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever:
| | |
I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. |
|
|
| 5 |
For thou, O God, hast heard my vows:
| | |
thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name. |
|
|
| 6 |
Thou wilt prolong the king's life:
| | |
and his years as many generations. |
|
|
| 7 |
He shall abide before God for ever:
| | |
O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him. |
|
|
| 8 |
So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever,
| | |
that I may daily perform my vows. |
|
|
